Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Finca Perdriel, Colección Cabernet Sauvignon 2007, describing its terroir quite complete at a premium level
Finca Perdriel, Colección 2007, Cabernet Sauvignon, By Bodega Norton, USD 14
A Cabernet Sauvignon from Perdriel District in Lujan de Cuyo Dpt, Central Mendoza.
One of those balanced and fully ripe Cabernet Sauvignon that I admire from Perdriel District,even more complete and attractive than Malbec, No peppery neither herbal notes. Only dark cherries and berries with only a hint of red fruits to make the palate wider. Sweet and delicate far from overexpression. Strong alcohol that doesn´t bother at all.
Beautiful chocolaty component. This type of red reaches close to and is hard to differentiate from Tupungato and La Consulta imprints (Uco Valley). An 88 points red to get the best between 4 and 6 years old and a good value at a premium level.
